About this company
Esteem Multi-Academy Trust currently comprises of eleven academies throughout Derbyshire, Derby City and east Staffordshire. Formed by a group of like-minded school leaders in August 2018, the MAT is currently responsible for the education and care of approximately 1,200 students and employs around 750 staff. The total revenue budget for the MAT is approximately £23 million and plans are in place to expand further. Esteem Multi-Academy Trust has grown to include 7 special schools, 3 support centres (PRUs) and a primary school. We wish to grow further to fulfil our vision to become a centre of excellence for special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). We have a well-defined set of values and a clear vision for the MAT to become a regional hub for expertise in SEND and inclusion. We share a collaborative ethos, believing that our collective efforts will achieve a better outcome than we can as individual schools. Our academies focus on the holistic needs of the young person, due to students’ vulnerabilities. So, ‘joined-up thinking’, between our academies and different agencies, is essential to deliver the right support for our students. The MAT’s main aims are to: Work collaboratively and strategically to secure high-quality education for all young people in our academies. Deliver a skills-based curriculum that is tailored to individual needs and the specific requirements of students attending our academies. Create economies of scale through commissioning services and purchasing resources. Share expertise, best practice and resources to ensure high standards and value for money. Exploit fully opportunities for collaborative, continual professional development. As a group of academies working together, we can share and deliver better practice. We will be able to commission health, care and therapy services in a fully ‘joined-up’ way.
